Do I need a rake kit?

It depends on the level of steering comfort you experience. If steering seems more difficult, demo a raked trike to decide whether or not adding a rake kit would be best for you.

Why a 4 ½ degree rake?

Motor Trike does not significantly increase the wheelbase length when they install a trike conversion onto a motorcycle. Other trike convertors increase the wheel base length when they add a trike conversion. This puts more weight on the front wheel making the trike more difficult to steer. To correct that issue a bigger rake is needed. More weight on the front tire also increases tire wear.

Since Motor Trike conversions do not add any significant amount of static weight to the front of the conversion, less rake is needed to achieve the desired steering effort. Tire wear is also decreased. Motor Trike's 4 ½ degree rake provides the correct amount of steering assistance without compromising the steering feel for our trike conversions.

Motor Trike offers an Independent Rear Suspension on many of their conversions. This makes for a great ride by allowing each wheel on the same axle to move independently of each other. This alone creates a smooth ride. However, Motor Trike did not stop there. First, they designed and patented an air ride suspension that offers over four inches of wheel travel. Then, they lowered the spring rate to create a more comfortable ride with plenty of 'give' when traveling over bumpy terrain, with an extra passenger, heavy cargo, or pulling a trailer. Because of the fingertip adjustable air ride suspension and softened spring rate, optimum ride quality is reached. Motor Trike also uses rubber bushings on all suspension components as well as on the differentials to reduce the noise, vibration, and harshness that can be bothersome to riders. Also the roll center height has been lowered ensuring both tires are kept in contact with the road at all times which helps to prevent rolling. And finally, Motor Trike uses a calibrated sway bar to ensure comfortable and secure cornering. With all of these preventative measures in place, the inconsistencies in the road are completely absorbed creating an effortless ride.

Independent Rear Suspension

All Motor Trike conversions include a patented air ride suspension, rear tires and wheels, interior trunk light, and a 3-year/60,000 mile warranty.

Motor Trike does not significantly increase the wheelbase length when installing a trike conversion onto a motorcycle. This preserves low-speed maneuverability similar to that of a two-wheel bike while still allowing the trike to handle and ride smoothly at any speed, without a rake kit.
